From Atheism to Belief: A Journey to Islam in North America by Dr. Jeffrey Lang (Part 16/17,Q&A4)

From Atheism to Belief: A Journey to Islam in North America. This was the topic of a lecture delivered by Dr. Jeffrey Lang at McGill University on October 27, 2007.

Dr. Jeffrey Lang was born in Bridgeport, Connecticut in 1954. He grew up in a Roman Catholic family but became atheist by the time he was 18. In the early 80s, however, he converted to Islam and since then, he has been an active and influential voice in Islamic Circles throughout America.

Dr. Lang is currently a Professor of Mathematics at the University of Kansas in the US.

I'm sorry his mum felt allienated by that paticular muslim community.

they failed their test as muslims.

some muslims don't understand the true meaning of islam,they might dress like muslims and talk like muslims but there's no warmth or sincerity.

subhanallah what is happening to us,if ppl turn away from islam because of our behaviour we will be held accountable in yuum all qyiaamah.

[PhilosophyRant]

His answer to the evolution question reveals that his beliefs are presuppositional, that is he takes his religious beliefs before everything else: "However life happened, god is at the origin"

That's saying "whatever science finds in the future, it's still god"

Shame on people who call that an intellectually honest thing to do.
